The Company of Archers #6
Kings and Crusaders
This is a the sixth book in the exciting saga of an Englishman who rose during the turbulent years following the death King Richard. It is action-packed historical fiction about medieval life and the constant warfare of the Middle Ages during England's feudal times after Richard the lionhearted. More specifically, it is the sixth novel in Martin Archer's epic feudal saga about the English farmer who rose to be the captain of a company of English Archers in Medieval England. Richard has died and John is to be crowned king in his place. There is action and excitement as Pope Innocent III calls for another crusade to free Jerusalem and the cities of the Holy Land. William's priestly brother Thomas and the archers become involved when the Pope asks Thomas to help one of his assistants carry a "cease and desist" message to the crusaders - it's a message some the crusaders' leaders and their Venetian allies know about and are willing to go to war to prevent it from being delivered.This particular book will appeal to readers interest in the following authors and Cornwell,feudal England,King Richard the Lionhearted,Genre fiction sagas,war and military,fiction war,the crusades,the middle ages,war and defense operations,wars, battles, and campaigns,British and Irish historical,adventure stories and action,action and adventure romance,alternative history,black death,anglo-saxon 500-1000,historical fiction,historical alternative history,fantasy alternative history,action and adventure,history medieval,history feudal,history England,history Britain,literature and fiction,genre fiction war,fantasy alternative fiction,action and adventure,historical military,genre fiction war,historical fiction Irish,historical fiction England,Historical fiction Britain,historical fiction Wales,historical fiction Scotland,King of England,Cornwall,King Alfred,kings of England,war fiction,war & military action fiction,alternative history,action & adventure fiction,saga fiction,family saga fiction,genre fiction war,genre fiction saga,world history medieval,literature & fiction action & adventure,action & adventure romance,action & adventure war & military,literature & fiction,thriller & suspense,genre fiction historical,historical military,British & Irish fiction,

If you like this kind of thing I cannot recommend this author and his books enough. The Archer series is brilliant, a great and compelling read, good characters, complex and compelling storylines and enough twists and turns to keep you guessing. Can't wait for the next one, it can'y come soon enough.

wanted Editor / Proofreader
Story is fun but it is like reading a first draft with so many repeats of conversation, action, really it's like reading the story two or three times. I'm slugging through because of the storyline, I'm happy I'm reading this through Kindle unlimited and not payed out right.

William's hour
A good yarn as usual, despite all the typos, missing words and conjunctivitis. The lack of a proof reader has spoiled the series for me personally

More of the Same!
This book seemed even shorter than the previous three! The action and plot are getting predictably redundant and obvious. C'mon Archer, give us something with meat on it and fewer typos and printing screw ups!

A bit disapointed
At 33% through the book it was the end and a the rest was a "bonus book" except the bonus book was just book 1 of the series hahha ahhh thanks I already read that one. The book was 3$ so I can't complain cause I enjoyed the short story.

Good Story
Although the early part of this book was a duplication of an earlier book, I skipped past the repeated part and found the least two-thirds readable. The plot and characters are basically good, the author's redundancies are not.
